- Send me a PM titled WE ARE A BRUTAL KIND: -Fill in the name of the Arcana you want-
- The contents of the PM only needs to include the [ Ghost ] section of the CS (look below).
- This will serve as your reservation, I will make sure no one else takes your Arcana or Ghost. You have 1 week to finish your CS before they both become available again. You can finish the rest of the hidden portions of your CS through this PM.
β΅ Base CS β΅
This portion is answered normally like any other CS and should be posted in this thread. You can code it however you want just make sure it's legible on all platforms.

- Arcana: This is the Tarot card your character woke up with. A list of them all along with links to sites explaining their traditional meaning can be found below. The essence of the card must relate to your character in some way, even if that interpretation is creative.
- Name: Your character can refer to themselves by the Major Arcana they woke up with or by something else. This is not their real name.
- Age: Rough estimate, given they won't know for sure. Something like 'They appear to be in their early 20s' is fine.
- Sex:
- Appearance: Include height! You can write it or just use an image. Try not to use IRL people for Face Claims pls, personally I find it awk. You can use realistic or aesthetic drawings though idc.
- MBTI: Shortcut for personality. If you have your own system you'd rather use that's fine, I just don't want like a full written description. (Yeah some people went the extra mile but just aim to be an underachiever this time. It's alright, give yourself a break xD )
- Power: People with amnesia are sometimes able to recall certain skills or abilities through implicit memory. You may pick 1 thing to carry with you through the fog. (Ex: Lockpicking)
- Inventory: Your character can wake up with items on their person, but there are limits to what will be allowed. Weapons and tape are absolutely unacceptable.
- Sins: Try and stick to things like Lust, Wrath, Gluttony, Greed, Pride, Sloth, Envy, doesn't have to be one of the 7 Deadly Sins just nothing too descriptive like 'I killed 3 grandmothers'.
β΅ Secret CS β΅
This portion should be sent to me through PM.
This portion should be sent to me through PM.
(Please answer the following questions in the voice of your character. Think of it like an interview.)
What is your biggest fear?
What is most important to you?
What is the thing most wrong with the world?
Would you die for someone else's sake?
What is SACRIFICE?
(This part you can answer normally.)
Ghost: Every character has a special stalker whose form you may choose. Think of it as a personalized haunt...a representation of their biggest fears or the worst aspects of who they are. Some type of monster from mythology, folklore, or fairytales, ect. You can even make one up. There is no limit only that you cannot have the same as someone else, and it must relate to your character in some way (be ready to give an explanation if I don't immediately see the connection). For the most part I will be controlling these characters so keep that in mind. Each Ghost can have their own mechanics (ie: can only move when no one is looking at them, ect.) along with specific strengths / weaknesses. Note: You do not have to finish your Ghost before we start the RP! So if you need time to think about it, take it. But if you do not claim the Ghost you can't complain later if someone takes the one you wanted to use. And you will have to finish it by a specified time so don't blow it off.
Backstory: Here is where you give me all the information your character will have forgotten. The only requirement is that they must have [ sinned ] in some way. What that means is up for interpretation, but I will have final say. The more details you provide the more I will alter the story to suit their needs, so write freely. I may ask you for more if I feel you did not provide enough.
Anything Else: That you might think relevant.
Be sure to include the [ secret code ]. ;>
(Here are some extra notes I wrote after the fact and put in the OOC, but it's kind of important so I should probably put them here, too, lol.)
* Your character will start off the RP with amnesia, so try and leave their backstory hanging off at an uncertain place. Whether they are dead or alive, what they were up to immediately before waking up, ect... these are all things to be discovered over the course of the RP. But otherwise don't shy away from details in your CS. Nothing is too innocuous, you never know how it may help inform the story we will tell.
* You can create preexisting relationships between characters if there is an RPer you want to work with, but they will have amnesia so don't expect them to immediately recognize that connection, if at all.
* This experience is meant to be a punishment, so try and include people who would [ deserve ] it. Yeah, the meaning of sin here is flexible, but I think the story strengthens the deeper they fall into that category. But again, it's ultimately up to you. I won't accept anyone who is [ innocent ], however.
* The connection between your character, their Arcana, and their Ghost should tell a cohesive story centered around a specific theme. The exact interpretation is up to you, but I should be able to clearly visualize the thread between them. And the more developed that story is, the more I have to work with on my end. ;>
